As someone who immigrated to America as 14, from a very homogeneous black country, I never open my mouth and pass judgment on African Americans. Neither do most people in my family.
Black people are my people but I know in many ways the African American experience is different than mine.
Social scientist from all different fields have explanation on why you see different outcomes, and different attitudes. To write off the struggle on African Americans as merely needing an attitude adjustment borders on the same dismissive schtick that people in the dominant society like to run.
